Falafel is a beloved Lebanese street food made from ground chickpeas (or fava beans), mixed with onions, garlic, parsley, coriander, and spices, then shaped into balls or patties and deep-fried until golden and crispy. Though its roots span the Levant, it is a staple in Lebanese falafel shops, typically served in pita sandwiches with tahini sauce, pickles, and fresh vegetables. Crunchy on the outside and soft inside, falafel is a popular vegan protein and mezze item.

Common variations include spicy falafel, falafel with fava beans, or baked falafel for a healthier version.
